Patients with lung cancer experience a heavy symptom burden during the perioperative period, which seriously affects their recovery and quality of life. Traditional symptom management models rely mainly on scheduled ward rounds during hospitalization and outpatient follow-up after discharge. However, they have limitations such as delayed symptom recognition, lack of post-discharge monitoring, and non-quantitative symptom assessment, which often lead to delayed interventions and low patient satisfaction. In recent years, the symptom management model based on electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) has been increasingly valued in clinical practice. Existing high-level evidence from both domestic and international studies indicates that, through proactive monitoring, real-time alerts, and remote interventions, this model enables dynamic and continuous symptom management and helps improve patient recovery and healthcare experience. As a supplement to routine medical care, the ePRO-based symptom management model aims to enhance the quality of care rather than replace existing medical processes. To promote the standardized application of this model in perioperative lung cancer care, this consensus integrates domestic and international evidence. After multiple rounds of voting by more than 50 experts, it formulates 12 consensus statements covering the three core components, symptom monitoring, alerting, and intervention, to provide scientific and practical recommendations for clinical practice.

Objective To observe the value of preoperative magnetization transfer imaging(MTI)for predicting postoperative pancreatic fistula(POPF)after distal pancreatectomy(DP).Methods A total of 65 patients with pancreatic tumor who underwent DP and preoperative MR scanning were retrospectively enrolled and divided into clinically relevant POPF(CR-POPF)group(n=14,with grade B or C fistula),biochemical fistula group(n=31,postoperative drain fluid amylase level exceeding 3 times the upper limit of normal)and non-fistula group(n=20,postoperative drain fluid amylase level not exceeding 3 times the upper limit of normal)based on postoperative records.Clinical data and magnetization transfer ratio(MTR)of pancreatic tissue at the surgical margin were compared among 3 groups.The predictive value of MTR for CR-POPF was evaluated according to the area under the curve(AUC)of receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Patients' age,intraoperative blood loss and the proportion of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in both CR-POPF group and biochemical fistula group were lower than those in non-fistula group(all adjusted P＜0.05),while no significant difference was found between the former two groups(all adjusted P＞0.05).MTR of pancreatic tissue at the surgical margin in CR-POPF group was lower than that in both biochemical fistula group and non-fistula group(both P＜0.05),whereas no statistical difference was detected between the latter two groups(P＞0.05).The AUC of MTR for predicting CR-POPF after DP was 0.727.Conclusion Preoperative MTI could be used to predict POPF after DP.

Objective:To explore the clinical value of plasma von Willebrand factor antigen(VWF:Ag)and VWF activity(VWF:GPIbM)based on ABO blood group in the risk assessment of deep vein thrombosis(DVT).Methods:A total of 163 patients with DVT who sought medical treatment from March 2021 to December 2022 were selected as the case group,and 135 healthy volunteers during the same period were selected as the control group.The differences of ABO blood groups,plasma VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM levels between the two groups were compared.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were used to evaluate the clinical value of VWF testing in predicting DVT events.Logistic regression analysis was applied to identify risk factors for DVT.Results:The levels of plasma VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM in the DVT group were significantly higher than those in the control group both overall and across ABO blood type subgroups(P＜0.01).Within the DVT group,the levels of plasma VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM in patients with non-O blood type were significantly higher than those with blood type O[VWF:Ag:219.74％±63.64％vs 162.21％±56.03％,P＜0.01;VWF:GPIbM:228.10％(185.15％,249.10％)vs 148.25％(116.48％,225.48％),P＜0.01].The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of VWF:Ag for predicting DVT events was 0.855,with a cut-off value of 142.4％,sensitivity of 82.2％and specificity of 72.6％;the AUC of VWF:GPIbM was 0.861,with a cut-off value of 141.2％,sensitivity of 84.7％,and specificity of 71.1％.Univariate analysis showed that both VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM were influencing factors for DVT events(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that VWF:Ag＞142.4％(OR=13.961,95％CI:7.654-25.464,P＜0.01)and VWF:GPIbM＞141.2％(OR=17.615,95％CI:9.155-33.892,P＜0.01)were independent risk factors for DVT events.Conclusion:Levels of VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM are significantly elevated in non-O blood type DVT patients.VWF:Ag＞142.4％and VWF:GPIbM＞141.2％are independent risk factors for DVT events.VWF testing based on ABO blood group aids in the precision prevention and control of DVT.

Objective:To investigate the effects of TP53 genetic status(wild-type/mutated/null)on the drug resistance of decitabine(DAC)in myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS)and identify key resistance-associated genes.Methods:Two myeloid cell lines with distinct TP53 status(M-07e:wild-type;SKM-1:mutated;)were treated with gradient DAC concentrations(0-10 μmol/L)for 0-72 h.Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay.RNA-Seq transcriptomics,and methylation profiling were integrated to analyze differentially expressed genes.Results:Decitabine(DAC)treatment induced time-and dose-dependent inhibition of cell viability in CCK-8 assays,with SKM-1 cells exhibiting the highest resistance(IC50=5 μmol/L vs M-07e=0.5 μmol/L,P＜0.01).Transcriptomic analysis revealed 662 upregulated and 452 downregulated genes in DAC-treated M-07e cells,while SKM-1 cells showed 515 upregulated and 73 downregulated genes.By proteomic profiling,117 upregulated and 136 downregulated proteins were identified in M-07e cells,while 91 upregulated and 46 downregulated proteins were identified in SKM-1 cells following DAC exposure.Through integrated analysis of upregulated genes and proteins expression profiles,181 candidate genes were screened out,while methylation studies identified 884 hypomethylated genes with high-sensitivity loci and CpG density.Notably,31 genes overlapped between these datasets,and functional annotation indicated these drug-resistance-associated genes are primarily involved in positive regulation of cell differentiation,negative regulation of binding processes,and negative regulation of cellular component organization.Conclusion:TP53 mutations drive DAC resistance via epigenetic reprogramming.Targeting these genes may improve outcomes in TP53-mutated MDS.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of tislelizumab combined with platinum-based drugs in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. Eighty-six patients with clinical stage Ⅳ NSCLC in Huaibei People's Hospital from June 2020 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects, and the patients were divided into the control group and the observation group based on the randomized numerical table method, with 43 cases in each group. The control group was treated with platinum-based drugs, the observation group was treated with platinum-based drugs combined with tislelizumab, and all patients were treated for 4-6 cycles. The two groups were compared in terms of therapeutic efficacy, serum tumor markers [carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cytokeratin 19 soluble fragment (CYFRA21-1) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125)] detected by chemiluminescence method, serum immune function indicators [CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 + cell ratios and CD4 + cell number-to-CD8 + cell number ratio (CD4 +/CD8 +)] detected by flow cytometry, and quality of life [European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) quality of life measurement scale (QLQ-C30) scores in functional domain and symptom domain], and incidence of adverse reactions. Results:The differences in baseline data of age, gender, degree of tumor differentiation, pathological type, lesion location, programmed death receptor ligand 1 expression between the observation group and the control group were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05). After treatment, the objective remission rates in the observation and control groups were 34.9% (15/43) and 18.6% (8/43), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( χ2 = 2.91, P = 0.088); the disease control rate in the observation group was 74.4% (32/43), which was higher than that in the control group [51.2% (22/43)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.98, P = 0.026). The differences in the serum levels of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 between the observation group and the control group before treatment were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05); the serum levels of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group after treatment, and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0.01). The differences in the CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 + cell ratios and CD4 +/CD8 + between the observation group and the control group before treatment were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05); the CD3 +, CD4 + cell ratios and CD4 +/CD8 + in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, the CD8 + cell ratio was lower than that in the control group after treatment, and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Before treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in the scores of EORTC QLQ-C30 functional domain and symptom domain between the observation group and the control group (both P > 0.05); after treatment, the functional domain score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group, the symptom domain score was lower than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (both P < 0.01). The incidence rates of skin itching, rash and diarrhea in the observation group were 23.3% (10/43), 20.9% (9/43) and 48.8% (21/43), respectively, which were higher than those in the control group [4.7% (2/43), 2.3% (1/43) and 27.9% (12/43)], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Tislelizumab combined with platinum-based drugs in advanced NSCLC patients can enhance the short-term efficacy, reduce serum tumor marker levels, and improve the immune function and quality of life of the patients, but it will increase the occurrence of skin and digestive tract adverse reactions.

Yanchi Tan sheep,a specialty of Ningxia,China,is famous for its excellent meat quality,but the detailed mechanisms of its muscle development and meat quality formation are still unclear.In or-der to preliminarily investigate the unique molecular mechanisms in the muscle development of the sheep,the present study was carried out to collect the longest dorsal muscle(LDM)samples from 6-month-old and 12-month-old female Tan sheep,and we screened the genes and long non-coding RNA(lncRNAs)that may play important roles in regulating the muscle development and meat quality formation through transcriptome sequencing(RNA-seq).The results showed that a total of 504 mRNAs and 1,483 lncRNAs were detected between the two groups of LDMs,with significant differences(P＜0.05).And we also pre-dicted 103 potential lncRNA-mRNA cis-regulatory relationship pairs with significant differences(P＜0.05).Skeletal muscle development-related genes such as MSTN,CDKN1A,FHL1 and skeletal muscle metabolism-related genes such as LPL and SCD were subsequently screened based on the functional anal-ysis of differentially expressed mRNA.Based on the functional analysis of differentially expressed lncRNA target genes,13 lncRNAs potentially related to muscle development(LNC.17926.1,LNC.981.1,LNC.16284.1,etc.)and 8 lncRNAs potentially related to skeletal muscle metabolism(LNC.15496.1,LNC.18149.1,etc.)were identified.5 lncRNAs and 4 mRNAs expressed in both groups were randomly selected for qPCR validation experiments,and their results were consistent with RNA-seq,which corrob-orated with the reliability of the sequencing results.This study lays a solid foundation for future investiga-tions of muscle development,meat quality formation mechanism and molecular breeding in Tan sheep,and provides a scientific basis for improving the meat production performance of other domestic sheep breeds.

Diterpenoid ferruginol is a key intermediate in biosynthesis of active ingredients such as tanshinone and carnosic acid.However, the traditional process of obtaining ferruginol from plants is often cumbersome and inefficient. In recent years, the increasingly developing gene editing technology has been gradually applied to the heterologous production of natural products, but the production of ferruginol in microbe is still very low, which has become an obstacle to the efficient biosynthesis of downstream chemicals, such as tanshinone. In this study, miltiradiene was produced by integrating the shortened diterpene synthase fusion protein,and the key genes in the MVA pathway were overexpressed to improve the yield of miltiradiene. Under the shake flask fermentation condition, the yield of miltiradiene reached about(113. 12±17. 4)mg·L~(-1). Subsequently, this study integrated the ferruginol synthase Sm CYP76AH1 and Sm CPR1 to reconstruct the ferruginol pathway and thereby realized the heterologous synthesis of ferruginol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The study selected the best ferruginol synthase(Il CYP76AH46) from different plants and optimized the expression of pathway genes through redox partner engineering to increase the yield of ferruginol. By increasing the copy number of diterpene synthase, CYP450, and CPR, the yield of ferruginol reached(370. 39± 21. 65) mg·L~(-1) in the shake flask, which was increased by 21. 57-fold compared with that when the initial ferruginol strain JMLT05 was used. Finally, 1 083. 51 mg·L~(-1) ferruginol was obtained by fed-batch fermentation, which is the highest yield of ferruginol from biosynthesis so far. This study provides not only research ideas for other metabolic engineering but also a platform for the construction of cell factories for downstream products.
